MANUFACTURE’S DESCRIPTION
Rarely does the appearance of a new model create as much excitement as this one. Following in the footsteps of the successful Beneteau 473, the Beneteau 423 has been enamoring sailors from coast to coast. Designed by the famous Groupe Finot, naval architects with more production yachts afloat than any other design firm, the Beneteau 423 has both brawn and beauty. She is built to sail confidently in any sea, yet lacks nothing in comfort or beauty.Below decks, she is all Beneteau with incredible detail to quality woodwork and liveaboard comfort. Above, she touts the finest in marine hardware, innovative features, and a design that makes single or double handed sailing a breeze. And only Beneteau, the world’s largest manufacturer of sailboats, could create such an impressive performance cruiser at such an unbelievable value.This is a yacht built with her owners’ comfort in mind. She may be all strength and performance above, but below decks, she’s all light and beauty. Down the companionway steps, you’ll discover an imaginative interior design that will delight the most demanding cruising sailor.
